In Serena's Web

Genre: Romance/Fiction

Summary:


At twenty-six, Serena Jameson is a handful—brilliant, manipulative, and passionate, at least when it comes to righting the wrongs of the world. Her father, a renowned computer magnate, is worried about Serena’s impetuous nature—as well as a far more tangible threat—and entrusts a colleague, handsome Brian Ashford, to ferry her on a trip across the country. But as usual, Serena has ideas of her own.

A novice in affairs of the heart, Serena asks Brian to give her a crash course in seduction so that she can tame the notorious womanizer Joshua Long. But what starts as a simple lesson in love becomes a complex erotic dance, as both men find themselves caught in the snares of Serena’s undeniable wiles. Is Serena trying to attract her declared target or her teacher? Who is really ensnaring whom? And can she finish weaving her web before the mysterious cabal eager to kill Serena’s father manages to succeed—over her dead body?

Thoughts:

I've never read a book that surrounded itself solely on romance until In Serena's Web. The plot, is executed perfectly imperfectly and the subplot simply decorates the story of an insane person with a little "too sane" person. In Serena's Web is a perfect read for a quiet weekend or a vacation. It is a beautiful page turning novel and descriptively tells a budding romance from start to finish.

The characters are  very different and easily noticeable, which is necessary to a good book. In Serena's Web  is definitely a fulfilling read for the romantic. I personally loved the main character, Serena, because she is complex, but extremely human. She is a good example of who I would look up to. The story also paints a picture of the roles of females in the world today, very smart, driven, and compassionate. It's another novel that proves women can do just as well under pressure as men and probably win more business  relations.

She's seductive and lovely and extremely powerful as well as cunning. The best part is going along with how the other characters come to realize this.

I recommend this book to anyone who can handle their romance and a little smidge of erotic scenes.
